Android version and market relevance

The long-awaited announcement of a new smartphone from the manufacturer Samsung, which took place in January 2019 (in our catalog you can see all smarphones of 2019). This is a new model Samsung Galaxy M10 — dual smartphone works on Android 8.1 Oreo, which can be updated to version 9 Pie.

And let’s look at an important function — the availability of 5G networks support in a smartphone. Samsung Galaxy M10 has not received support for 5G networks, but this does not mean that this model is bad and does not deserve your attention. Look at all the features of this smartphone and its price. It is possible that you will like it very much and will be suitable for purchase today. And after one or two years, when you choose the next new smartphone, then on the page of all 5G smartphones in our catalog you will see hundreds of smartphones from many manufacturers at different prices.

Screen, body and battery

Briefly describe the screen and the body of the smartphone. Samsung Galaxy M10 received PLS TFT-screen measuring 6.22 inches. And this is a phablete, not just a smartphone. And, even if you liked this model, it′s far from the fact that it will be convenient for you to use it. Therefore, we advise you to hold it in your hands before buying.

And now let’s move on to describing the dimensions of the case. The ratio of screen size to body size of Samsung Galaxy M10 is very high, so the screen takes up almost all the space from edge to edge (but a little bit lacking to the parameters of a frameless smartphone). In addition, there is a small drop notch above the screen, which houses a selfie camera. Such a cutout significantly increases the usable area of the smartphone screen and even distinguishes the body design from other models. The thickness of the smartphone Samsung Galaxy M10 is 7.7 mm. This is an absolutely normal average shell thickness. And in such dimensions the engineers managed to put the battery on 3 400 mAh, which is the average value in the market.

Main camera and selfie camera

Let′s briefly describe the cameras in Samsung Galaxy M10. The main camera got several modules (dual camera smartphones): 13 MP Wide + 5 MP UltraWide. Why, for example, has multiple lenses in a smartphone camera become the absolute norm on the market today? Because with these smartphones you can take beautiful portraits with blurred backgrounds (this is called the Bokeh effect). And manufacturers have also learned to make software enhancements to photography based on the analysis of frames from each lens. It seems that this is exactly the case when it is better to see once than read about it a hundred times. Therefore, we advise you to take a few shots yourself with the camera of this smartphone.

The front camera has one module: 5 MP with a regular lens. Do not say that this is very much, is in our catalog selfie smartphones, whose frontcamera will be an order of magnitude better. This model has a front camera as usual at the top of the screen, like 99.9% of all smartphones. But, if this makes you bored, then we can offer smartphones with pop-up front camera. In these models, the front camera is located inside the body and goes up only when you activate the front camera mode. It sounds interesting, but how convenient it is and how long this mechanism will work is not yet clear.

Processor and Internal Memory

Smartphone received 8-core processor Exynos 7870 Octa. If you want to assess the speed of the smartphone and its performance, then do not forget to see how much RAM is installed in it. Samsung Galaxy M10 received 2 GB of RAM, and there is another version of this smartphone with 3 GB of RAM.

And there are options with built-in memory. You can choose 16 GB or 32 GB. Supported memory cards microSDXC.

Price for Samsung Galaxy M10: buy or not to buy?

Price Samsung Galaxy M10 at the start of sales was $145. A smartphone with this price level got into the price segment “Affordable smartphones from $100 to $200” and got a very powerful processor, a huge touch screen, and the front camera is not too cool with a decent main camera.

If you want to buy Samsung Galaxy M10, you can choose any online store or offline electronics store, the main thing is to have a guarantee for the smartphone and the desired version of the model you have chosen.

Before buying, if you have the opportunity, it is better to hold the phone in your hands, check the screen, the quality of the photo and video, look at the smoothness and speed of the interface. Never buy a “cat in a bag”, be sure to check everything before buying. Today, good smartphones are worth a lot of money, so it′s better to spend an extra ten minutes to eventually buy the model that will work well one or two years and help you in everything.
